In a meeting with senior Iranian officials on Monday, Ayatollah Khamenei said that Israel’s military threats against Iran are constantly repeated but the United States prevents Tel Aviv from launching a strike: the good cop, bad cop trick!

The Leader continued: “The reason for the US prevention of an Israeli attack against Iran is that it does not see the attack affordable and we also strongly emphasize that the US knows that the military attack on the Islamic Republic or another country is not believable. If they conclude that the military attack is affordable for them, they will not stop for a moment.”

Ayatollah Khamenei said since the two main tools of the enemy i.e. military threat and sanctions have proven ineffective, they have started the new strategy of leading Iranian officials toward miscalculation. He urged the officials to confront the sanctions with resistance economy and stressed that the country should plan as if sanctions will remain in place so that Iran will be immune to outside threats.

Ayatollah Khamenei also issued Iran’s nuclear rights and said US opposition to Iran’s nuclear technology is unfair and illogical, adding that preventing access to nuclear arms has definite procedures and responsible organizations but the US is not entitled to express concern over the probability of access to nuclear arms because it has used these arms and has currently thousands of them.

The leader also referred to the talks between Iran and six world powers on the Islamic Republic’s nuclear energy, stressed that Iran’s right to nuclear research and development must be respected in the negotiations. He also stated that the uranium enrichment issue is one of the points of difference between the two sides and even if they agree on this issue they state another one like human rights or women rights instead.
